Webinars series on Geo storage Technology - Italian Geological Society (SGI)

The 21 January will start a new online seminar series on ‘’ Geo Storage Technology’’ sponsored by the Italian Geological Society (SGI). The series consist on a weekly event starting by the 21 January and ending on the 25th February and represent an opportunity to keep the exchange of ideas going within our community on the theme of the future Energy transition and its impact on the Geosciences.
